It had to do with Ozzie putting a price on what he thought was Ed’s value and Houston way over paying it. I love Ed reed as a playr. Think he is in the conversation as the best fee safety of all times. But he is in the late December of his career. He doesn’t really tackle anymore because of recurrent shoulder and neck issues. He has lost a step, but still is better at reading the qb than anyone out there. I wish him well except when he plays my ravens. Once he is done he has his place in Thorpe roh. What I am most happy for is that he got his SB win. That completes his career and for that I am glad.

Texans fans are praying Reed can teach their loser franchise the way of the Ravens. Good luck Reed, you will need luck playing with an average team like the Texans

Scoreboard
43-13

Do PUP list players travel? That may be the only way we see him on September 22.

Given the ransom that Flacco demanded, the Ravens couldn’t have gotten into a bidding war no matter how much they wanted him.
———————————————–

Far be it from me to let facts get in the way of good hyperbole, but Joe Flacco’s cap number this year is only $6.8 million.

FYI, you would need to double that cap hit to even get Flacco in the top 10 most expensive QBs this season.

Fans are sad they won’t be calling “REEEEEED” when he did something good but honestly those have been less and less frequent. Players either ride off into the sunset with the same team – like Lewis – or they go for one last run with someone else – like Reed. No hard feelings either way.

It is insane though to tie this to Flacco. As someone else pointed out Flacco’s deal has nothing to do with it. No one can pin any departing players on Flaccos deal. It is not true and there is no evidence.

Dude do some research before you go yapping. Joe has a ridiculously low cap number this year and a moderate cap hit next year which wouldn’t have effected bringing Reed back unless you think Joe should play for free. You’d think after the hundreds of articles about joes salary you’d pick up on that instead of being ignorant with the whole “it’s Flacco’s fault” comments. Truth is- Reed is in his mid 30’s and Baltimore was smart to not overpay him. If he didn’t want to come back on our number? That’s on Ed. Not Joe. Frankly we’re fine with it in Baltimore. No more whining about money every year and injuries every single game forcing him out for a series or 2.

It’s still unfortunate that a guy like Reed is forced to finish a long and respected career elsewhere.

I’d still support a roster and salary cap exemption for players who have 10+ years with their team.

While some teams may never have eligible players or those who are worth keeping, overall it would be beneficial to the league to give an additional incentive and support to retain such players even if its only to serve as a pseudo coach/role model for rookies.
